Don't Be 'That' Student
Straight-talking advice for students who want to get it right - without wasting time.
Don’t Be That Student is the book your lecturers wish they could say (written by one who finally has).
It’s short. It’s blunt. And it tells you exactly how to get through university without failing your assessments, annoying your tutors, or losing the plot.
This is not an academic textbook. You can read it in one sitting, then get on with the stuff that matters.
Written by a former Senior Lecturer who’s taught thousands of students, this book cuts through the nonsense and shows you what actually works.
You’ll learn how to:
Stop making excuses and manage your time like an adult
Handle lectures, seminars and assessments without winging it
Use feedback properly (instead of binning it and hoping for the best)
Deal with group work, awkward tutors, and academic expectations
Use AI tools safely - and avoid a misconduct case
Get your degree without burning out or losing your mind
No nonsense. No long-winded theory. Just what you need to know.
Read it. Apply it. Don’t be ‘that’ student.
